Leo Cullen has named Tadhg Furlong in his Leinster side set to take on La Rochelle in Round 3 of the Investec Champions Cup at the Stade Marcel Deflandre on Sunday.

Furlong returns to win his 150th Leinster cap in what will be his first appearance since the win over Munster at Croke Park back in October, with Jamison Gibson-Park also set to hit the same milestone.
